Conviction & thesis
What is intended hold?
The number of days you planned to hold a position when you opened it.
Definition
The number of days you planned to hold a position when you opened it.
Intended hold, explained
Set at entry alongside conviction. The Druckenmiller signal: if you said 90 days at the desk and exited at 11, your conviction broke; if you said 30 and held 180, it grew. Reflect compares intended-hold to actual-hold over time so the gap becomes a measurable behavior pattern, not a vibe.
Where intended hold shows up in a journal
A trading journal is where this stops being a definition and becomes your own number. sizeforzero computes it from the trades you import or log, alongside the rest of your analytics vocabulary, and every figure in the app carries an (i) that explains it in the same plain English you just read.
